I came here to make a similar comment. In KDE just use… I could swear it was ctrl+alt+arrow key but a quick search tells me it’s meta+arrow key (currently on my phone) to tile windows if I want. Quarter or half sceen tiling works for me so I’m content with that. OP didn’t specifically say dynamic tiling so perhaps one of these methods will be sufficient for OP?
I’ll check out that tiling feature mentioned above, I wasn’t aware of it and am curious!
You are. Reformat and install the first hardware compatible distro you find on https://distro.moe/ right now. Don’t think too much about it, just do it! /s, probably?
If checking out a different distro sounds interesting and/or fun then you should. If not, then don’t. Whatever way you Linux is the correct way for you.
Genocide? That some new brand of energy drink?
That’s fair. It’s good to educate on these things.
I knew about Redhat’s recent bad behavior, I somehow missed that IBM owns Redhat. So TIL.
I dropped Fedora in light of recent news but I’m not OP. They can decide for themselves on that. If OP or anyone is interested in learning more, a search for RHEL source paywall will get you there.
Stick with your distro and try Gnome. Fedora is pretty high up there on the “just works” category.
My time I’d normally use for gaming has gone in to starting to learn FreeCAD, which I guess I could argue is an open world builder game.
TL;DR: Ubuntu. Because I want choices.
Ubuntu. And I’ve felt that way for a long time, so it’s not something recentish like snaps.
I don’t want my distro to decide what DE and software I’m using for me. They used to have a minimal iso which gave you, as the name suggests, a very minimal install. But now their minimal image is meant for containerized stuff and if memory serves comes with some extra cruft for that purpose.
I got annoyed and I left. And every distro I’ve tried since, even if I didn’t stick with it, I liked better.
To add some constructiveness, as that’s just complaining. That can be a good thing, just depends on the user. If they want the crafted experience Ubuntu provides, then it’s a good pick. It’s just not for me.
I wonder if it is notorious?
Do most Linux users (in this context we’ll say people who specifically choose to use Linux and by extension chose a specific distribution) look unfavorably on proprietary software being excluded by default?
For me, I prefer it so I don’t see it that way. But it is also an extra step and an annoyance if you want things to “just work”. Which is an understandable position.
Food for thought, I guess.
LFS feels like the next logical step in that progression.
This seems to be an unedited version of that video with sound. I don’t speak Korean so I can’t validate it against the article, but the bbc has a reputation for being credible so I’m inclined to believe it. https://youtu.be/GcUe4O_53_0
As for the organization, the only mentions I’ve found are almost all about this, with one mention of it being a think tank in South Korea, which is weirdly little information.
X11 is like a big dilapidated house. It doesn’t work very well anymore and is difficult to maintain.
Wayland is new modern house. Smaller and more efficient, but missing some amenities that the old house had that some people still want, like a wood burning stove.
Do we know if this is going to be implemented per device or it’s done via geolocation or something? I skimmed the article, didn’t seem to say besides “don’t get excited if you’re outside of Europe” or something to that effect. Basically wondering if this benefit can be gained in the future by importing a phone.
My dislike of Apple is… decades old. But Google sucks too. I need to dig into how Apple treats privacy (someone mentioned that it might not be great on another of these posts) and see how the software ecosystem outside of the Apple store shakes out. I’m hopefully several years out from needing a phone replacement, so I can wait and see how it goes.
I’ve ended up with NixOS, because I still like getting punished by my software.
Suck it, nix users. You know it to be true.
… true.
Around 1998 I’d guess. Some loadlin based setup on my friends Windows machine. Don’t recall the name. I remember running Mandrake shortly after that.
I’ve hopped back and fourth between many distros, and gone back to Windows a few times over those years. But I’ve been using Linux as my daily driver for about a decade now. Currently using and enjoying NixOS.
Yubikey and OnlyKey are the only hardware keys that work with keepassxc. So if that’s a requirement for you, then those are your only options. This is true for me as well.
They cover this in their docs and faq page: https://keepassxc.org/docs/#faq-yubikey-2fa. OnlyKey is an unknown to me while I’ve heard of Yubikey for years.
I don’t like Ubuntu, and I do like Arch’s philosophy. But I think Arch is the more prone to breakage of the two.
Don’t have one I love. Will have to review these comments!
Currently I use the Jellyfin web UI. Usage-wise it’s decent, but I don’t love using a browser for music.
Previously I was using mopidy + mopidy-Jellyfin + ncmpdcpp but it broke and I never got around to figuring out why. I didn’t particularly enjoy ncmpdcpp. Great piece of software, don’t get me wrong, just didn’t like the TUI music client experience as thought I would.
Checking out GUI based mpd client ecosystem seems like the next logical step.
I see what you’re getting at. It’s a matter of perspective, I guess.
If you presented someone with a list of features from two similar but different pieces of software, they wouldn’t say software b is broken because it’s featureset is different from software a, right? But I acknowledge it’s not that straightforward. It’s more like telling them software b is going to replace software a that you’re currently using, get ready to say goodbye to some features.
I still don’t consider wayland broken, but I understand argument that it is.
I read it was Pokémon like and wrote it off. I’ve tried to but never enjoyed Pokémon. I grew up on jrpg’s so you’d think that was right up my alley. But I disgress…
The comments here paint a more complex story. It honestly still doesn’t seem like my type of game, but my curiosity is piqued. I’ll check it out.
